GLOBAL DIVERSIFIED MARKETING GROUP INC.
NOTES TO THE (UNAUDITED) CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS SEPTEMBER 30, 2020 and 2019
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Business
Global Diversified Marketing Group Inc. (the “Company”), formerly known as Dense Forest Acquisition Corporation, was incorporated in Delaware on December 1, 2017, and changed its name on June 13, 2018, as part of a change in control. As part of the change in control, its then officers and directors resigned and contributed back to the Company 19,500,000 shares of the 20,000,000 outstanding shares of its common stock, and appointed new officers and directors. On June 14, 2018, the new management of the Company issued 12.500,000 shares of its common stock to Paul Adler, the then president of the Company.
On November 26, 2018, the Company effected the acquisition of Global Diversified Holdings, Inc. (“GDHI”), a private New York company owned by the Company’s president, with the issuance of 200 shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of GDHI. GDHI became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and its activity for the periods presented are reflected in these unaudited consolidated financial statements along with the expenses of the Company.
Before the acquisition of GDHI, the Company had no business and no operations. Pursuant to the acquisition, the Company acquired the operations and business plan of GDHI, which imports and sells snack food products. For accounting purposes, GDHI is considered to be the acquirer, and the equity is presented as if the business combination had occurred on January 1, 2017.
COVID-19
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) declared the COVID-19 outbreak to be a global pandemic. In addition to the devastating effects on human life, the pandemic is having a negative ripple effect on the global economy, leading to disruptions and volatility in the global financial markets. Most US states and many countries have issued policies intended to stop or slow the further spread of the disease.
COVID-19 and the U.S’s response to the pandemic are significantly affecting the economy. There are no comparable events that provide guidance as to the effect the COVID-19 pandemic may have, and, as a result, the ultimate effect of the pandemic is highly uncertain and subject to change. We do not yet know the full extent of the effects on the economy, the markets we serve, our business, or our operations.
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are presented in US dollars. The Company has adopted a December 31 year-end.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable from customers, accounts payable, and loans payable. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these financial statements.
F-5 |
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheet. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Stock-Based Compensation
As of September 30, 2020, the Company has not issued any share-based payments to its employees. Under the modified prospective method, the Company uses, stock compensation expense includes compensation expense for all stock-based compensation awards granted, based on the grant-date estimated fair value.
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with the original maturities of nine months or less to be cash equivalents. On September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the Company had $23,500 and $22,291 in cash, respectively.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are generated from sales of snack food products to retail outlets throughout the United States. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and adjusts credit limits based on customer payment and current creditworthiness, as determined by a review of their current credit information. The Company continuously monitors credit limits for its customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses based on its historical experience and any specific customer issues that have been identified. An allowance for doubtful; accounts is provided against accounts receivable for amounts management believes may be uncollectible. The Company historically has not had issues collecting on its accounts receivable from its customers. The Company factors certain of its receivables to improve its cash flow.
Bad debt expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, and 2019 were $3,039 and $-0-, respectively. The allowance for doubtful accounts on September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, was $-0-.
Inventory
Inventory consists of snack food products and packaging supplies, stated at the lower of cost or market.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets. Maintenance, repairs, and renewals that do not materially add to the value of the equipment nor appreciably prolong its useful life are charged to expense as incurred.
Revenue Recognition
Beginning January 1, 2018, the Company implemented ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Although the new revenue standard is expected to have an immaterial impact, if any, on our ongoing net income, we did implement changes to our processes related to revenue recognition and the control activities within them. These included the development of new policies based on the five-step model provided in the new revenue standard, ongoing contract review requirements, and gathering of information provided for disclosures.
F-6 |
The Company recognizes revenue from product sales or services rendered when control of the promised goods are transferred to our clients in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. To achieve this core principle we apply the following five steps: identify the contract with the client, identify the performance obligations in the contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract and recognize revenues when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation.
Advertising and Marketing Costs
The Company’s policy regarding advertising and marketing is to record the expense when incurred. The Company incurred advertising and marketing expenses of $67,985 and $7,376 during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, and 2019, respectively. Included in advertising and marketing expenses are
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized.
The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, with the consent of its stockholder, had elected to be taxed as an S Corporation under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Instead of paying federal corporate income taxes, the stockholder(s) of an S Corporation are taxed individually on their proportionate share of the Company’s taxable income. Therefore, prior to the business combination discussed above, the Company had made no provision for income taxes. Effective with the business combination, the wholly-owned subsidiary became a C-corporation, and the loss incurred in 2018 for the period as a C-corporation approximated $270,000. See Note 7. The Company’s income tax returns are open for examination for up to the past six years under the statute of limitations. There are no tax returns currently under examination.
Comprehensive Income
The Company has established standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components, and accumulated balances. When applicable, the Company would disclose this information on its Statement of Stockholders’ Equity. Comprehensive income comprises equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. The Company has not had any significant transactions that are required to be reported in other comprehensive income.
Basic Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic income (loss) per share has been calculated based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Adoption of ASC 842 - On January 1, 2019, we adopted FASB Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, Topic 842, Leases, or ASC 842, which requires the recognition of the right-of-use assets and related operating and finance lease liabilities on the balance sheet. As permitted by ASC 842, we elected the adoption date of January 1, 2019, which is the date of initial application. As a result, the consolidated balance sheet prior to January 1, 2019, was not restated, continues to be reported under ASC Topic 840, Leases, or ASC 840, which did not require the recognition of operating lease liabilities on the balance sheet, and is not comparative. Under ASC 842, all leases are required to be recorded on the balance sheet and are classified as either operating leases or finance leases. The lease classification affects the expense recognition in the income statement. Operating lease charges are recorded entirely in operating expenses. Finance lease charges are split, where amortization of the right-of-use asset is recorded in operating expenses and an implied interest component is recorded in interest expense. The expense recognition for operating leases and finance leases under ASC 842 is substantially consistent with ASC 840. As a result, there is no significant difference in our results of operations presented in our consolidated income statement for each period presented.
We adopted ASC 842 using a modified retrospective approach for all leases existing on January 1, 2019. The adoption of ASC 842 had a substantial impact on our balance sheet. The most significant impact was the recognition of the operating lease right-of-use asset and the liability for operating leases. Accordingly, upon adoption, leases that were classified as operating leases under ASC 840 were classified as operating leases under ASC 842, and we recorded an adjustment of $44,602 to operating lease right-of-use assets and the related lease liability. The lease liability is based on the present value of the remaining minimum lease payments, determined under ASC 840, discounted using our secured incremental borrowing rate at the effective date of January 1, 2019, using the original lease term as the tenor. As permitted under ASC 842, we elected several practical expedients that permit us to not reassess (1) whether a contract is or contains a lease, (2) the classification of existing leases, and (3) whether previously capitalized costs continue to qualify as initial indirect costs. The application of the practical expedients did not have a significant impact on the measurement of the operating lease liability.
NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN
As of September 30, 2020, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $23,500 and an accumulated deficit of $(26,307,206). These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
On April 17, 2020, the Company received a forgivable loan in the amount $28,642 under the Federal Payroll Protection Program (“PPP”). While the rules under the PPP are complex and continue to evolve and be clarified, generally the PPP loan will be forgiven if, during a certain measuring period that begins with the receipt of the loan, at least 75% of the loan is applied to employee payroll expense with the balance applied to rent and utilities and the recipient employer has employees equal to 90% of the number of employees it had prior to receipt of the loan.
The proceeds from the PPP loan were applied to certain expenses as required to qualify for forgiveness under the PPP Program. As a result, for the period ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded $28,642 in “Other Income” on its Consolidated Statements of Operations.
On May 21, 2020, the Registrant received a loan from the Small Business Administration in the amount of $150,000 (the “SBA Loan”). The SBA Loan bears interest at 3.75% per annum and is payable over 30 years with all payments of principal and interest deferred for the first 12 months.
Both of these loans significantly improved the Company’s liquidity and working capital.
The consolidated financials have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. If the Company is in fact unable to continue as a going concern, the shareholders may lose some or all of their investment in the Company.
NOTE 3 – EQUITY
The Company has 100,000,000 shares of $.0001 par value common stock authorized. The Company has 13,127,200 and 13,010,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company issued the following shares:
On February 26, 2020, the Company issued 60,000 restricted common shares to a consultant and recorded a charge of $120,000.
On July 30, 2020, the Company issued 12,000 restricted common shares to an investment banking firm and recorded a charge of $12,600.
On August 14, 2020, the Company issued 30,000 shares to an investment banking firm and recorded a charge of $22,503.

Discussion of the Three and Nine Month Periods Ended September 30, 2020, and the Period Ended September 30, 2019
Revenues and Cost of Sales
Sales for the three months ended September 30, 2020, were $667,237 compared to $366,354 for the same three month period ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $300,883. Sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, were $1,260,539 compared to $1,040,644 for the same nine-month period ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $219,895. Our sales increase in both the three and nine months is attributable to the addition of new customers, new products as well as increased sales to existing customers; offset by the impact of Covid-19.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we had four customers that represented 85% of our business, compared to 94% for the same four customers during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The loss of any of these customers could have a material adverse impact on our business.
Our gross operating margin which is calculated by subtracting the cost of sales from revenue was $246,539 for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $143,997 for the same three-month period ended September 30, 2019, an increase of $102,542. This increase is attributable to higher sales levels in 2020. Our gross margin as a percentage of sales was 36.9% in the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to 39.3% in the same 2019 period.
Our gross operating margin was $475,066 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $344,824 for the same three-month period ended September 30, 2019, an increase of 130,242. This increase in operating gross margin is attributable to increased sales in 2020. Our gross margin as a percentage of sales was 37.7% in the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to 33.1%% in the same 2019 period. Our gross margin percentage will vary due to the mix of our product sales. We expect our gross margin percentages to be in the range of 35-40%, going forward, although there can be no assurances.

This increase in 2020 is primarily attributable to increased advertising expenses of approximately $60,000 in the 2020 period to help support sales levels.
Other Income (Expense)
Other income and expense is comprised of other income items and interest expense. Other income was $5,469 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $22,722 in other expense during the same period ended September 30, 2019. The improvement in other income and expense of $28,181 is attributable to the recording of income for the forgiveness of $28,642 in PPP loans as described throughout this report
Net income (loss)
Net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, was $26,132,488 compared to a net loss of $39,263 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Equity, a non-cash charge of $166,635 relating to the issuance of shares of common stock to service providers and other income of $28,642 in other income from the forgiveness of the PPP loan. Excluding these items, the profit for the 2020 period is $25,905 compared to a net loss of $39,263 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The increase in profit in the 2020 period compared to the same period in 2019 is attributable to an increased gross margin of $130,242 from higher sales levels in the nine months ended September 30, 2020, offset by an increase of $64,623 in operating expense.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash used in operating activities was $81,085 during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to net cash provided of $7,467 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, a decrease of $88,552. The increase in net cash used in operating activities is attributable to net changes in operating assets and liabilities.
Net cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, was $82,294 compared to $27,987 used in financing activities during the same period nine-month period ended September 30, 2019. The increase is primarily attributable to the receipt of $178,642 in SBA financing due to COVID-19.
A large portion of the Company’s liquidity in 2020 was provided by the SBA COVID-19 loans thus allowing the Company to reduce its reliance on factoring. Additionally, the Company became profitable from operations during the three months ended September 30, 2020. In the event the Company cannot maintain its profitability going forward, it will have to rely on additional factoring or other sources of financing such as debt or equity. There can be no assurances that other forms of financing on reasonable terms, or continued higher levels of factoring will be available to the Company in the future.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements.
The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.
Equipment Financing
The Company has no existing equipment financing arrangements.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Disclosures and Procedures
Pursuant to Rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules. This evaluation was done as of the end of the period covered by this report.
The Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company’s sole officer, its president, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of the end of the period covered by this report under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer (who is also the principal financial officer) based on the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013). Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of the date of review, based on those criteria. A control system can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues have been detected.
Management is also responsible to maintain records accurately and fairly to reflect transactions and transactions are recorded, as necessary. The controls should provide reasonable assurance regarding the prevention of unauthorized acquisition or use of assets.
In the present case of the Company, management maintained sole control of all financial transactions and all assets. Since the president of the Company is in sole control of the financial transactions and assets management believes that its control reasonably and adequately addresses the risk of a misstatement in the financial reporting. Based upon that evaluation, the principal officer believes that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in gathering, analyzing, and disclosing information needed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in its periodic reports is recorded, summarized, and processed timely. The principal executive officer is directly involved in the day-to-day operations of the Company.
This Quarterly Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this Quarterly Report.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that was identified in connection with such evaluation that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
